ATHENS, Greece Dept: ATHENS, Greece - Greeks head to the polls Sunday in their most critical and uncertain election in decades, with voters set to punish the two main parties that are being held responsible for the country's dire economic straits, according to Winnipeg Free Press. Public anger has been so high that politicians have been forced to maintain low-profile campaigns for fear of physical attacks on the streets in a country battered by business closures and hundreds of thousands of job losses and greece's socialist leader, Evangelos Venizelos of the PASOK party, speaks in central Athens' Syntagma Square on Friday, May 4, 2012. Fewer than 5,000 people turned up at the socialists' final rally ahead of Sunday's election.

Days of wrangling over forming a coalition will likely ensue, with the prospect alarming to Greece's lenders and much of the country's population of another round of elections if they fail.
